ADRIAN MITCHELLI was run over by the truth one day.Ever since the accident I’ve walked this way.
ADRIAN MITCHELLThe man who believes in giraffes would swallow anything.
ADRIAN MITCHELLYou put your bombers in, you put your conscience out.
ADRIAN MITCHELLAnd the BMA sent a writ my wayWith the very first leper I cured.
ADRIAN MITCHELLThere have always been poets who performed.
ADRIAN MITCHELLBlake sang his Songs of Innocence and Experience to parties of friends.
ADRIAN MITCHELLPoetry is an extra hand. It can caress or tickle. It can clench and fight.
ADRIAN MITCHELLStadium rock and commercial rock are the opposite of what poetry needs. An audience of around 200 is ideal for poetry.
ADRIAN MITCHELLWhen I am sad and wearyWhen I think all hope has goneWhen I walk along High HolbornI think of you with nothing on
ADRIAN MITCHELLWritten poetry is different. Best thing is to see it in performance first, then read it. Performance is more provocative.
ADRIAN MITCHELLI don’t like writing essays or theory.
ADRIAN MITCHELLMost people ignore most poetry because most poetry ignores most people.
ADRIAN MITCHELLAnd the BMA sent a writ my wayWith the very first leper I cured.
ADRIAN MITCHELLI use the language I use to my friends. They wouldn’t believe me if I used some high-flown literary language. I want them to believe me.
ADRIAN MITCHELLI hope my poetry has a relationship with good-time rock’n roll.
